You can also use Moodle Test User Accounts to test features like assessment setups – these temporary accounts let you log in with a real student view, and submit to your own assignments. They’re great for practicing marking, demonstrating to students, and understanding how workflows work, and they disappear after a fortnight so there’s no chance they’ll get mixed up with actual students. Find out how to set them up here: https://wiki.ucl.ac.uk/display/MoodleResourceCentre/M14+-+Test+User+Accounts.
